My work examines the inter-connectedness between the individual and the collective. I accumulate single pattern, cut-out paper or fabric to create bigger drawings or installations. When these tiny and seemingly insignificant individual pieces are gathered together, they generate a powerful existence as a collective body. I’m interested in creating visual illusion and the energy of the collective.
The labor-intensive and meditative process is employed to highlight and pay homage to individuals and everyday activities of life. In framing art-production as labor, the discourse of my work derives not only from formal decisions but rather metaphysical exploration and the process of creating the work, beyond the physical appearance.
